Hang in there. It all goes away eventually. Or do I am told. <VBG>

Seriously, hoping you have a solution soon.   Of course, you may not get
this....

Computers are great, when the systems work.... but without them we wouldn't be
having this conversation, would we?

But I have got such great ideas and guidance from this group alone that
it's all (well almost all of it) has been worth the 'e-hassle'.

Subject: E-mail problems

Please assume that I haven't received any e-mail sent to me in the last
48 hours.

I've managed to diagnose the problem: basically, my new ISP has a circular
buffer of size 1 for my e-mail. This means that when I log on, I get the
last
message sent to me, all other messages since last log-on are discarded
without me being informed.

If I had a continuous connection, this would be fine. But alas, I don't. And I
get something like 200+ e-mails a day.

I'll let the list know when I'm back to normal service, and if so, which
e-mail
address I'll have.
